QE2 Paper Model

[Anubhav Mitra]

One interesting thing I have noticed is that there is no good paper model of the QE2 , the only paper model of the QE2 is made by Schreiber Bogen, but it's not good.

I have contacted a paper modeler who made beautiful papermodel of the Queen Mary 2 , but he has told me that they are interested in making one but their schedule will not allow them to make it before mid 2021.

I have designed a few papermodels in the past, but I don't think I can make one of the QE2, even though I would love to design one

I forgot to add pictures of the QM2 model

Wow!   Thats made from paper?  Its amazing!

Fantastic detail on the paper model.  How difficult was it to put together and how long did it take to build?

[Anubhav Mitra]

Actually, the model in the picture was not built by me, but I am making my own. It will most probably take around 20 to 25 days, it is not that difficult, if the person building it has some experience building papermodels. The most difficult and time consuming task is cutting those small parts from the paper and then folding them into the shape, also the sheer no of parts may be a problem. The catamarans are probably the most difficult part, it is a good idea to wear glasses while making them as making the model without glases will cause a headache which I had. But nothing beats the joy when the model is finally finished 
It is also a great activity in times of lockdown.

That is amazing!

It is amazing ! The intricacy of the detail is incredible ! The colour is also very good !

I am going to purchase a paper model kit from them but can't decide which one to make.
I have also attached pictures of the models and created a poll.
There are also models of Mauretania, Carpathia , United States and many more
you can check out their website, JSC.pl

Those models are incredible.

For me, the one that jumps out and appeals, is the Elizabeth, then the Caronia, then Mary.  I love Mary, but she has the disadvantage of still existing, if that makes any sense.

Good luck!

yeah, I also prefer the Elizabeth and Caronia, I like the Mary but it is more complex. But I prefer the Elizabeth as it seems more modern and elegant.
The thing I like about old ocean liners is just imagining getting up the first class gangway and entering the ship, the excitement you felt was tremendous.

Also voted!

Really looking forward to seeing the process of assembling such a model. What a challenge ahead .

I've voted, but seriously - why not just make the whole lot...?

I second this! This would be awesome!
